Verse 1:

E B E A

I see lives crash like waves on the shore again and again

E B A

In endless cycle of joy and pain

E B A

Inside one day your whole life can change, innocence torn away

E B A

Trust gives gives way to a thicker skin

Verse 2:

E B E A

A shield from the pain? Or a trap that keeps it all in?

E B A

They tries to break me down I had to break away

E B A

I woke up from that nightmare to start another day...

Chorus:

E B A A/G#,A,A/G# E,B,A,A/G#,A,A/G#

I wanna be a simple man, with a little peace of mind

aii bii E

Live a simple life in a place that's kind

Verse 3:

E B E A

I see lives crash like waves on the shore again and again

E B A

In an endless cycle of joy and pain

E B A

NO POETRY, NO SYMMETRY, nothing left inside of me

E B A

What happened to that feeling of invincability

Verse 4:

E B

Broken up- Caught under the load

E A

Broken down- By the side of the road

E B A

They tried to break me down I had to break away

E B A

I woke up from that nightmare to start another day...
